Dbrand apparently knows how to really whiff a product launch , as we recently saw with the Steam Machine Companion Cube shell. But it also makes the best case out there for the Nintendo Switch 2, which happens to be discounted right now. The Killswitch 2 is versatile, with better build quality than other similar models, snapping around the back and the edges of the console, with Joy-Con slip covers that add a bulkier, more ergonomically-friendly feel to the controllers. The “Travel” bundle that also includes a hard bungee strap-secured cover to protect the screen (that can hold 10 cartridges) plus stick grips is $69.99 at Dbrand , or $71.99 at Best Buy (usually $80).

The Killswitch 2 is a great pick if you want to retain the console’s hybrid use cases, swapping with ease between handheld to docked mode. The case includes a USB-C dock adapter to let you beam the console’s video feed to a TV; it’s a slightly cumbersome solution if you’re aiming to have a tidy entertainment center, but I haven’t seen other brands achieve a more elegant adapter solution yet.
